The days when I was a maid in another world

From the next day, the person who came to deliver the food became Talis.Although she didn't pay much attention to my "flat chest", I knew that she knew my real gender.As for when she started to know, I don't know.

It can be seen that she is one of Sterling's most trusted people.A pure master-servant relationship like the two of them is rare. After all, they are a man and a woman, and they are both young and beautiful, yet neither of them has the slightest admiration for the other.

If it were me, with such a young, beautiful and capable female subordinate, I would probably have been in a turmoil for a long time, and then I would try my best to get the moon first.Therefore, through this incident, I feel that Sterling is not as romantic as the outside world said. Although he has fourteen beautiful mistresses, but from the time I entered the house to the present, except for the one where he left halfway to sleep with his mistress at the ball Once, I never saw him ask anyone to stay with him overnight.

I don't know if he knows how to restrain himself, or if he doesn't like those women.However, for a man, the woman he sleeps with does not necessarily have to be the one he likes.Therefore, I think it is more likely that he will restrain himself. Not keeping them by his side may be due to safety issues or other issues.

After Talis delivered the meal and left, I saw that the weather outside was fine and my body had almost recovered, so I decided to go for a walk.

After reluctantly putting on the special little vest, the roomy hospital gown on my upper body instantly filled up a lot.

I:"……"

Looking at this size, it is at least a C cup...

The little nurse who took care of me told me that if I went for a walk, I had to go to the backyard.I guess it was Sterling's order, so I didn't make things difficult for her, and went to the backyard honestly.

There are many sycamore trees planted in the backyard, and there are benches for people to rest under the tall trees.I sat on the bench and looked up at those palm-like leaves, and my heart was full of emotion.

When I followed my mother to my grandmother's house when I was a child, the road I had to pass was lined with such trees on both sides, and there were two at the gate of my grandmother's house.The turquoise trunk and palm-like leaves look lush.

This kind of tree was called "Chinese phoenix tree" in my original world. It is the real phoenix tree native to our country and different from the plane tree. It is a legendary sacred tree that can attract phoenixes...

As the homesickness grew stronger, I was also thinking, what would the eastern country look like in this world?

The sound of conversation outside the large nearby wall brought me back from my thoughts.I listened carefully for a while, and it turned out that the attending doctor of a patient was talking with the patient's family members.

The small courtyard I was in was a separate courtyard of the hospital, obviously reserved for Sterling and his men, while on the other side of the big wall was the main courtyard open to the public.

The doctor is suggesting to the patient's family members to perform an operation on the patient. The family members are worried about the risks. The doctor said that the success rate of this operation is very high. The cyst was taken out...

I am not interested in the content of their conversation, but the word "narcotics" caught my attention.

Anyway, this is a good thing...

***

A few days later, Sterling decided to release me from the hospital.

When he handed me a brand new maid outfit, the corners of my eyes twitched again.

Alas, when will the days of pretending to be women end...

"Sterling, you forgot to bring me something." I glanced at the suit, but didn't change immediately.

"what?"

"razor."

This time, he twitched his eyebrows and feet.

"I need to shave and shave my legs," I said, stroking my now-smooth chin.

He looked at me silently for a while, then turned and left.When he came back again, he handed me a scalpel.

I:"……"

Isn't he afraid that I might stab him with a knife?

Seeing that I didn't reach out to pick it up, he added: "It's very sharp, it should be easy to use. Of course, be careful, don't add any more wounds."

I took the knife, picked up the suit, and went to the bathroom.When I came out again, I became Tang Ni, the personal maid in the lord's mansion.

"Let's go." He said, raised his legs and walked out the door.

"Wait a minute." I stopped him, and then asked hesitantly, "Sterling, can I advance my salary for this year?"

"Why do you need so much money all of a sudden?" His brows were slightly frowned, and his scrutinizing eyes fell on me.

"It's okay." I turned my face away, unwilling to explain further.

"Okay." After pondering for a long time, he finally agreed, and then directly took out five silver coins from his pocket and handed them over, "If you run away halfway, I will collect the debt."

I:"……"

A guy with a lot of silver coins in his pocket at all times, why is he so stingy!

Now that the money is in hand, I should also redeem the pendant.This morning, I asked Talis to bring my luggage along with me when she came to deliver the meals, because I had already thought about letting Sterling borrow money when he came again.I was injured because of his relationship now, so I took this opportunity to make some requests, and I guess he will agree.And the fact is as I thought, he did agree.

After I was injured, I felt more and more that it was because I didn't have a talisman.I haven't had a better day since pawning that pendant last year.Now, I can't wait to redeem that thing immediately.

I told Sterling directly that I was going to the pawn shop in the city, and he didn't object, and even suggested that I go there in his carriage.I thought it would be better this way, because I don't have to worry about walking, and I don't have to worry about being watched.

After the carriage stopped at the pawn shop, I got out of the carriage and went in alone.

The same as when I came last time, the manager came over with a smile on his face and asked kindly: "Hi, miss, is it a pawn or a redemption?"

"Redemption." I replied, then opened the bag and took out the envelope.

After opening the envelope, I took out a piece of paper and unfolded it, and it turned out to be a blank piece of paper!I instantly widened my eyes in astonishment.No matter how I look at it over and over again, this is a blank piece of paper, and what I sealed in the envelope before is obviously a pawn ticket!

Seeing that I was holding a blank piece of paper, the manager stood silently aside.

I couldn't stop wondering what the hell was going on.I have marked the seal of the envelope, and I don't think it is possible for my envelope to be dropped.But if you open the envelope and replace the pawn ticket with blank paper, I think it is more difficult than changing the envelope.

Regardless of how the bag was dropped, the key is who dropped the bag for me?Could it be that when Talis and Emilia searched, they took the opportunity to change my things?

I shook my head secretly, thinking that it shouldn't be the two of them, otherwise, wouldn't it be revealed immediately once I found out?As housekeepers and foremen, if they dared to steal from the maids, they would no longer have to work in the mansion.

Who could it be?I couldn't think of an answer for a while.

"Sir," I looked up at the manager, "can you redeem something without a pawn ticket?"

"No." The manager replied without hesitation.

"Then can I check to see if the thing is still there?" My biggest concern right now is whether the thing is still there.

That kind of pawn ticket is anonymous, so whoever holds it can redeem the thing as long as they pay the principal and interest.

"Sorry, miss, no." The manager still shook his head and refused.

I thought about it, then pointed to the carriage outside the door and said to him, "Do you know whose carriage it is?"

The manager followed my hand, his face flashed with surprise, then he looked back at me carefully, nodded slowly, and said: "I know." He pointed up with his hand, It means high status.

"I'm doing something for him, so I hope you can accommodate me." I said sincerely, "You don't need to do anything illegal, just help me see if the things are still there."

He no longer hesitated, but instead bowed and made a gesture of invitation, motioning for me to go to the inner compartment to discuss in detail.

After I entered the compartment as he wanted, he called a teller who was in charge of keeping the items, and then asked me to describe the specific situation of the item.

After I finished speaking, the teller looked at me and said, "I have the impression that a gentleman with an oriental appearance brought it over." Then, he paused, "That gentleman and this Miss looks alike."

I:"……"

Fuck!That's me, can I look alike?

"That's my brother." I had to reply calmly.

The teller nodded, obviously believing what I said, then he frowned and said, "But, that thing was redeemed a few days ago, and it didn't come from the owner..."

I stood up all of a sudden, and blurted out, "What does that person look like?"

The teller looked at the manager, obviously he did not dare to disclose customer information without the manager's permission.The manager thought for a moment, then nodded at him.Seeing this, the teller went on to say: "The person here is a woman, not tall, fair and thin, with blond hair and blue eyes, very beautiful..."

I just feel the blood in my body become cold instantly...

I don't feel sorry for that thing, I just feel sorry for the feelings I gave.Not only did she take my stuff, she lied to me.Where did the money for her ransom come from?I couldn't help but think of the five years of debt I had incurred.

Anna, you let me down so much...

I said good-bye to the pawnbroker, and returned to the carriage in a daze.

Upon seeing this, Sterling asked: "What? Didn't go well?"

"No, it's going well." I forced a smile and replied in a relaxed manner.

If the truth is told, Anna will be arrested for a crime, right?Such a beautiful and lovely girl, there must be her reasons for doing this, after all, her family is very difficult... I don't want to think about whether what she told me is true, I just hope she is lying to me In the future, I can really live the life I want, no longer be a maid, and don't be touched by me again.

Anna, make sure you don't touch me again, or I'll tell you how angry I am.
